“Time for the Blues” on WCVE Public Radio


Back
“Time for the Blues” is a retrospective of all blues music and is produced and hosted by John Porter and Henry Cook.

The program focuses on specific artists and various themes in the blues, especially featuring major contributors such as: Muddy Waters, B.B. King, Mike Bloomfield, Howlin' Wolf, Charlie Musselwhite and John Lee Hooker, among many others.

While all time periods are represented, most of the music presented is what we call “post-war” blues (post WWII through the present). Regional blues are also featured, from the Mississippi Delta, Chicago, the West Coast, Memphis, Texas, the Piedmont, as well as British and other blues influences from around the world.

When available, new releases are featured and listener comments and requests are always welcomed. Email us at: timefortheblues@gmail.com
